Trump is a damaged man and has lethal flaws: New book

"Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man," written by Trump's niece Mary and published by Simon & Schuster, is set to hit the shelves on July 14.

A new book by one of US President Donald Trump's close relatives has portrayed the president as a "damaged man" with serious character flaws.

"Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man," written by Trump's niece Mary and published by Simon & Schuster, is set to hit the shelves July 14.

The tell-all book warns that the leader of possibly one of the world's greatest econo-military powers has some "lethal flaws" that have put the lives of the population of the world at risk.

Mary Trump is the daughter of Fred Trump junior, the president’s elder brother, who was a pilot. He died in 1981 from excessive drinking.

Trump's niece, who has a doctorate in psychology and is a licensed clinical psychologist, warns in the book that due to president's utter depravity and deep-seated character flaws, he  "threatens the world's health, economic security, and social fabric."

In the prologue of the book she writes: "In addition to the firsthand accounts I can give as my father's daughter and my uncle's only niece, I have the perspective of a trained clinical psychologist. Too Much and Never Enough is the story of the most visible and powerful family in the world. And I am the only Trump who is willing to tell it."

"[T]oday, Donald is much as he was at three years old: incapable of growing, learning, or evolving, unable to regulate his emotions, moderate his responses, or take in & synthesize information," reads an excerpt from the book.

Revelations from the book detail how for the Trump family “financial worth is the same as self-worth; humans are only valued in monetary terms”.

The book reveals that “a ‘killer” instinct was misconstrued by the Trump family as a positive character trait, while noble character trait like empathy, kindness, and expertise were punished.

Mary Trump writes that among her family members “taking responsibility for your failures is discouraged”, while “cheating as a way of life” is encouraged.

Mary blames Donald's father Fred for much of the damage to Donald and his character flaws.

Fred "caused him terror," she writes, adding, "Donald suffered deprivations that would scar him for life."

Meanwhile, the writer is entangled in a legal battle over whether she has violated a confidential settlement agreement by writing the book.

Last month, when the news of Mary's book came out, the president's younger brother Robert filed a complaint against it.

One of the president's lawyers, Charles Harder, who has worked for Trump and Trump's re-election campaign for years, is representing Robert.

After losing in the first court in Queens County Surrogate Court, the case was referred to the New York State Supreme Court where it won an injunction against the release if the book. However, Mary Trump and her publisher took the case to an appellate court which lifted the temporary restraining order the very next day.

However, the restraining order is still in place against Mary Trump, so she is unable to comment publicly.

"Due to high demand and extraordinary interest in this book, 'Too Much and Never Enough' by Mary L. Trump will now be published on July 14, 2020," Simon & Schuster said on Monday.

The book had previously been scheduled to be released on July 28. Meanwhile, the publisher has already printed 75,000 copies of the book.

Recently, another damaging book was published against the president.

The memoirs of Trump's former National Security Adviser John Bolton titled, “The Room Where It Happened”, soon became the No. 1 best-selling book on Amazon.

However, 'Too Much and Never Enough' is currently the No. 1 best-selling book on Amazon, placing Bolton's book in second place.

“Mary L. Trump has the education, insight, and intimate familiarity needed to reveal what makes Donald, and the rest of her clan, tick,” read a release about the book by the publisher.
